Here is video from ABC World News Tonight. Reporter Jake Tapper is with the President in China and reports on Obama's Town Hall Meeting there. He then tries to interview a Chinese student until a Chinese official comes over to him and tells him he must stop.

When Tapper asks "Why," the official appears shocked to be asked the "Why" question.

"No why . . . My boss called us to stop, OK?"

Jake Tapper is as good a reporter as there is today on a Mainstream Media Network. He even dares to use the "C" word in his report, calling China a "repressive Communist regime." As far as I can tell, Obama has never uttered the word "Communist" or "Marxist" on this entire trip.

Name one President who travelled into a foreign country and proceeded to bad-mouth its leadership. Did Dick Nixon step up to Chairman Mao or Zhou Enlai and call them Communists? Did George Bush do likewise, when he looked deeply into Vladimir Putin's eyes and saw his soul?

About Freedom's Lighthouse

Freedom's Lighthouse is dedicated to being a blog of record for the political history of the United States of America. The United States is "Freedom's Lighthouse" in a world where the light of freedom is not found in many places. We will record that history - past and present - with a great emphasis on video, and will also mix in some of the nation's top sports and cultural news. In all we do we will seek to uphold the conservative principles that have made America "Freedom's Lighthouse."
